The prime light of this year Grammys was re-uniting the two living Beatles. Well, undoubtedly, Sir Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr did a surreal performance and reminisced the true essence of Beatles and the effect of them on America and the World.  Yoko Ono (widow of John Lennon) and Sean Lennon as well as Olivia Harrison (widow of George Harrison) were also present to commemorate the performance the living Beatles. Queen Latifah officiated 33 marriages on the Grammy stage. Yes, it is the truth, various couples, and few gay, were married live on the big stage during the performance of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis of “Same Love”. Queen Latifah even mentioned on stage, ”This song is not a love song for some of us but for all of us.” Some of the most awe-inspiring performances were by Daft Punk and Pharrell Williams, Pink and Nate Ruess, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Lorde and Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. Metallica also performed this year at the Grammys.

Surely, the French Duo did “Get Lucky”, Lorde was definitely amongst the “Royals” and Macklemore and Ryan Lewis changed our approach towards “Same Love”. This years Grammys was spectacular and did prove that underdogs could also “Get Lucky” and become “Royals”.
